PANTALOONS, DRAWERS, OR OVERALLS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent NO. 323,569, dated August 4, 1885.

Application filed May 13, 1885. (No model.)

1'0 all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, Josnrn Ersnnn, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Pantaloous, Drawers, and Overalls, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to pantaloons,'drawers, or overalls out without a scam in the crotch. In the Letters Patent granted to me under date ot' the 19th of May, 1885, I have described a mode of cutting loose-fitting garments without a scam in the crotch by folding the cloth lengthwise, cutting nearly across from the free edges toward the fold, turning the patterns so as to bring the ends together, with the folded edge on the inside of the legpattcrns thus produced; then sewing together the free edges of each leg-pattern, and finally attaching a separate body-piece; but it is manifest that this mode is not so well adapted for cutting garmentssuch as pantaloonswhich require to have a neat or close fit, and to have the front and back bodypieces, respectively, in one piece,with the leg-patterns on each side.

In order to apply the invention to pantaloons, drawers, and overalls, and permit of cutting the garment to an accurate fit without unnecessary waste of material, and to make the body-pieces in one with the front and back leg-patternsrespeetively,l cut the two leg-patterns not precisely end to end, as described in my patent of the 19th of May, 1885, already referred to,but connected diagonally at the crotch and in one piece of lllfltOllH1,t-ll6 diagonal posit-ion of the leg-patterns permitting an extension of each beyond the point of union, which extended parts form the body-patterns on each side, or a part thereof, as may be preferred.

in order that the invention may be clearly understood, I will proceed to describe it with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure I is a diagram of a pattern illustrating my invention in its preferred form. Fig.

II is a perspective view of apairof pantaloons made from the pat-tern represented in Fig. I. Figs. Ill and IV are diagrams of patterns of 5, are required.

modified form, also illustrating theiuvention. Fig. V is a perspective view of a pair of pantaloons made from the pattern represented in Fig. III. Fig. VI is a perspective view of a pair of pantaloons made from the pattern shown in Fig. IV.

The leg-patterns 1 2 are connected by a diagonal band or web, 3, and at the point of union are extended upward to form the bodypatterns 1 2", the parts 1 1, 2 2, and being all in one piece of cloth, as shown in Fig. I. To complete the pattern for a pair of pantaloons an additional fronthalf, 4, and back half, The pattern thus constituted is made up as shown in Fig. I, one end of the main pattern being reversed, so that 1 1 will constitute the front of one leg, with its body portion in one piece, and the part 2 the back of the other leg,with its body portion in one and the same piece without seam. The additional back 5 is then connected to the front 1 1 and the additional front 4 to the back piece, 2 2, to make up the complete garment, with the addition of the customary waist band 6.

In the modification illustrated in Figs. III and V the entire pattern is made in one piece of cloth with the exception of the waistband 6. This requires material of greater width, the front pattern, 1 1, being extendedlaterally, as shown at 5, and the back pattern, 2 2, being extendedlatcrally in the other direction, as shown at 4, while the diagonal connectingband 3 is formed in line with extensions 3 3, the edges or" which in making up the garment, as shown in Fig. V, are united to the outer edges of the respective extensions in longitudinal scams 7 8, at front and back rcspectively.

In the form of the invention shown in Figs. IV and VI the whole width of one complete leg-pattern, 1, and a partial pattern, 2, for the other leg, united bya web, 3, as before, together with an extension, 11, forming aportion of the back and overlapping a part of the other leg pattern, 2, are cut in a single piece, which is connected to the base of the band 6, as before. This pattern is supplemented by a singie legpiece, 5, and body-piece 5",which are formed of one additional piece of material. The leg- IOO piece 5 is seamed to the leg-piece 2, and the bod ypiece 5 to the body-piece 1.

Having thus described my invention, the following is what I claim as new therein, and desire to secure by Letters'Patent:

1. The herein-described iinproveinentin the manufacture of pantaloons, drawers, or overalls,which consists of a front of one leg, havingabody portion, a back of the otherleg, having a body portion, a connecting-band, and additional leg portions having additional body portions, said front and its body portion, said back and its body portion, and said connect ing-band all being formed in one piece, and
